Description

This is the fourteenth episode of Library Pizza, a podcast about reading hosted by the guy writing this: Mike Meginnis.

Tracy Rae Bowling and I discuss our local-arts-cinema-hosted Twin Peaks full-series marathon, what we've been reading, getting big into the baked potato, and the work of several movie directors. We also invent a lucrative new concept, the Boyby-Sitters Club.

Texts discussed include:

  1. C.J. Cherryh's Foreigner series
  2. Magda Szabó's novel Iza's Ballad
  3. Béla Tarr's The Turin Horse
  4. The Baby-Sitters Club
  5. Michael Berry's Jia Zhangke on Jia Zhangke
  6. Histories of China by Frank Dikötter
  7. The works of Jia Zhangke and Satoshi Kon generally

We'll see you again soon.
